Okay I don't really sleep with this, but it's a George Eagle soda from the mid 1800s.

Hello Mike,

You are late to the party, here, and addressing one of our more sporadic members. I have a hunch that there are more of these out there than one might think.

It's fun to read back in the archives. Did you miss: More of the Eagle Saga.

Have you seen the Eagle Pitcher?

It's an interesting bottle and highly sought after with us pontiled soda collectors. $1600 seems to be around what they bring in this deep tealish-emerald color. In 2007 when Grapentine sold his amazing collection, one in this color brought $4,600. That same bottle from the Grapentine auction surfaced again the next year in 2008 through American Bottle auctions again and only brought $1,600. Someone took a hard hit on that one.

In a 2010 American Bottle auction, one with a buffed out lip chip in a more emerald color brought $1,600. It was more on the color of Marks example he has pictured.

There have been some show up in aqua and a lighter shade of green in some past Glassworks auctions as well. There is a cobalt example that Grapentine sold in 2007 for $8,500 in an American Bottle auction. A stunning looking bottle and I thought about bidding but passed at that time after just buying our home.
